At Hortiki Plants, our mission extends beyond growing beautiful plants and curious minds – it includes nurturing our planet. We recognize that every online order, while bringing joy to your door, also carries a carbon footprint. That's why we're proud to offer carbon neutral shipping for all your purchases. We believe in taking responsibility for our environmental impact, ensuring we clean up after ourselves.
Hortiki's Impact: Your Purchases Make a Difference!
Thanks to our partnership with the Planet Carbon Neutral Shipping App, we're actively working to remove emissions from our deliveries. And the impact, thanks to your support, is truly growing! Since we started in 2022, we've removed 39 kg of shipping emissions.
To put that into perspective, that's like offsetting:
- The energy used to charge 4,939 smartphones
- 160 km driven by a gasoline-powered car
- The consumption of 17 liters of gasoline
These aren't just numbers; they represent real, tangible contributions to a healthier planet, made possible with every Hortiki order you place.
How Our Carbon Neutral Shipping Works
Our approach is simple and effective. For every delivery, the carbon footprint is carefully calculated based on factors like package weight, chosen shipping method, and the distance traveled. To neutralize these emissions, we partner with the Planet Carbon Neutral Shipping App, which then purchases verified carbon removal credits from groundbreaking projects. This means for every shipment, the carbon released into the atmosphere is offset by an equivalent amount removed or prevented elsewhere.
Making a Difference for Our Planet's Future
By choosing Hortiki Plants, you're not only getting quality gardening products, but you're also joining a growing community dedicated to a more sustainable future. We're proud to be part of a collective effort that has helped fund over 59 million carbon-neutral orders and removed over 43 thousand tons of carbon globally. We work with a network of pioneering carbon removal companies that have been vetted by the commerce platform Shopify, ensuring our efforts are impactful and future-proof.
We believe that making eco-conscious choices should be easy. Our carbon neutral shipping ensures that your journey to a greener thumb is also a step towards a greener planet. Thank you for helping us cultivate a more sustainable world, one carbon-neutral delivery at a time!
